Who Eats Mamba Candy?

I haven't had Mamba candy since the mid 90s.  In fact I'm not even sure if it still exists because I haven't seen it at a store in years.  Although the internet seems to suggest that Mambas still do.

Mambas are kind of like fancy Starbursts that come in a pack of 20 featuring four flavors: strawberry, raspberry, lemon and orange.  

Much like Rolos, I find it hard to believe that many people eat Mambas or consider it their favorite candy.

Although, eating Mambas really does say something about a person.  There are certain types of people who eat them : 

1. Snobby / pretentious people who think they're too good for Starbursts.  Nobody's above Starbursts. Plus Mambas don't have commercials like this.
2. People who like to make it rain with their money.  Oh look at you, you can afford to pay over dollar for your fancy candy.
3. Hipsters.  Starbursts are so played out, that's why I eat Mambas.
4. People who don't want their candy to fit in their pocket. Package is too big to fit normally and always awkwardly sticks out.

Also, I feel like Mambas have been lying to us for years.  With a name like Mambas one would assume they're like the Latin America equivalent of Starbursts, but surprisingly the candy comes from Germany.  

Those sneaky Germans.  This isn't France; you just can't invade people's mouths when you want.

Apparently Mamba refers to the deadly Mamba snake.  But what the hell does that have to do with candy? I'll chalk it up to just another weird German thing.
